Description

If you use a relative path to copy files, the source directory is assumed to be the `cockroachdb` repo. The destination will also be inside `cockroach`. This is unintuitive and inconvenient if you don't even work on `cockroach`.

It may be confusing to change the default behavior of `get`, but adding a new subcommand may be a way to support different workflows without breaking any existing users.
